== Comments from Heim == | |||
Re: : Yes, I felt it came down to blocking one or neither, and decided to give one more chance largely because Collectonian might have felt her earlier reverts were justified due to the removal of the tag. I find the method of giving a final warning and watchlisting the article sometimes lets one stop the edit war without using the tools. | |||
I wonder if we should consider making some sort of note on the 3RR page that edits that are "against consensus" are not vandalism and reverting them isn't exempt from vandalism. It seems to be a really widespread misconception. | |||
Just saw that you moved to Orange County, CA last year (yeah, I guess I'm slow), which makes us almost neighbors (I live in San Bernardino County, myself). Anyway, belated welcome to SoCal! And since I'm apparently just in a chatty mood now, I'll go ahead and finish this post off. ] ] 20:26, 23 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Blocked a range you've been dealing with == | |||
I've blocked for a week due to the massive amounts of vandlism only edits coming from that range (for example, on the article ]). As you've blocked several of the IPs in this range, I thought you'd want to know. ···]<sup>] · <small>]</sup></small> 00:24, 24 February 2008 (UTC) | |||

Please cancel his fourth revert - which violates 3RR. No need to warn him, because I'm sure it was not done on purpose! He's an honest person who is absolutely aware to the 3RR and has always obeyed the 3RR. | |||

:You'd need to take that up with the admin who protected the page. It often happens that articles get locked on , but it's generally against our protection policy to change protected articles in that way. ] <sup>]</sup> 21:34, 24 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
::I didn't ask you to undo the ] (since nobody can determine that previous versions are "better"), but rather to undo the version which violates the 3RR. Such a request is absolutlely legitimate and backed by '''objective''' criteria (not like any hypothetical request for subjectively preferring a "better" version over a "wrong" version). ] (]) 21:40, 24 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::But there's no basis in policy for "undoing" someone's edit just because it violates 3RR. The user himself might have undone it to avoid being blocked in the first place, but undoing it just because it broke 3RR would just amount to one more person adding to the edit war. Once article protection comes into play it can't be changed, but you might want to ask the protecting admin to remove the protection (if that would be appropriate - I can't really say, not being too familiar with the situation myself). ] <sup>]</sup> 22:55, 24 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Company name in photo == | |||
Dear Kafziel, | |||
I received your final warning for using our company name in the subscript of our photo. | |||
Why aren't you following the same policy for our competitor Arrowbio? | |||
http://en.wikipedia.org/Materials_Recovery_Facility | |||
On this page some one removed all our photo's and references to our company name REDOX Recycling Technology. | |||
Now you're doing the same with the photo of our DAF unit of our company REDOX Water Technology. | |||
Obviously I am doing something wrong here, what should I do to get the same reference to our company name as our competitor Arrowbio? | |||
Thanks in advance. | |||
